Do you ice your cakes right from the frdge or have them at room temp?
I am getting so busy that I need to put themin the fridge but not sure if I should wait until they are at room temp.
Thanks for your help!

I ice straight for the fridge and have never had a problem.

I ice my cakes close to room temperature. I did one straight from the fridge before and the moisture from the cake thawing out made the icing look like cellulite icon_surprised.gif Not a pretty picture. So never did that again.

I would be afraid to ice one straight from the refrigerator. Condensation may develop between the icing and the cake and cause you to have a "blow-out". I let mine stand uncovered for 15-30 minutes, come to room temperature, then I put icing on the cake. HTH icon_smile.gif

I would definetly say room temp. Straight out of fridge spells T-R-O-U-B-L-E from my own experience.

I think it depends on where in the country you live,what time of year it is and of course humidity.I ice right from the fridge but I live in a very dry area where there is no humidity so I don't have those issues but it is something to consider!

I keep all of my cakes cold... I torte them cold, I fill them cold, I frost them cold, I fondant and decorate them cold. I've never had a bubble or a blowout, so I must be doing something right! icon_wink.gif
